According to foreign media analysis, Windows 10 S is Google ChromeOS operating system is a complete cloning and imitation, Microsoft aims to follow the opponent to snatch the school market.

According to a number of US technology media reports, Microsoft this new operating system, a few days ago the media has been disclosed. But the final results released on Tuesday, for Google ChromeOS system "cottage degree" is still surprising. To some extent, it also means that Microsoft in the field of PC system Jianglang only do.

And ChromeOS, Windows 10 S system will be built a Microsoft PC software store, users can only download software from here, the user sacrificed the options, but the security was improved. This also means that Microsoft in the Windows system for the first time to completely learn Apple has been insisting on the closed ecosystem model.

Microsoft will also launch a special Office version of Windows 10 S.

Google ChromeOS free to the computer manufacturers, then, HP, Lenovo, Asus and all other computer manufacturers have launched a market for students and other cheap notebook computers, the price is generally about two hundred dollars, compared to Apple's notebook or tablet, cost-effective Obvious advantages.

In name, Microsoft is still the global personal computer operating system monopoly advantage manufacturers, but the Windows 10 S highlights Microsoft's lack of innovation in the field of operating systems, forced to naked copy competitors innovation.

It is worth mentioning that, recently, Microsoft filed regulatory documents show that the company has stopped for mobile phone operating system research and development of investment, which means that the Windows mobile phone platform basically come to the end of life, the rest is when the official announcement of the end of the project.

In the field of smart phones and mobile operating systems, Microsoft suffered a fiasco. As a result of slow action, coupled with the lack of third-party mobile phone software developers to support the application software to become a major weakness of the Windows mobile phone platform. At the same time, Google Android system and Apple iOS, relying on more than 200 million mobile software, monopoly of the mobile operating system market (the share of the sum of 99%).
